Animal of the Month
Each month a different animal is featured in the exhibit
area of the Nature Center. Sometimes we concentrate on a
single species like the coyote, sometimes the stars are a group
like Insects or songbirds, sometimes the exhibit teaches about
specific animal characteristics like beaks or skulls, sometimes
we discuss behaviors, sometimes the emphasis might be on a
natural community - but it's always interesting.
